  1. That is too much... Can't we have a whip round to pay for a taxi?
  2. Calling all punters: just seen that BetFred are offering 2/7 on Derby coming 2nd, compared to 1/40 elsewhere. I don't bet such short odds myself but that price must actually be good value! Fred obviously fancies a bet on the Rams sh11ting the bed
  3. What for me is interesting is that if you ask 1,000 people to flip a coin 100 times, you will get very close to 50,000 heads and 50,000 tails... ... but amongst those 1,000 there will probably be someone who flips 80 heads out of 100 and as a result thinks he's magic!
  4. The answer is to read it in your head as P-Dubz
  5. Bewildering lack of confidence from everyone
  6. One of those days when you wonder how Sonny Bradley made it as a league footballer
  7. Yep. If we consistently don't play as we want, and haven't really played well all season, as Warne is reported to have said, and we can't pass the ball through midfield consistently, it's down to the coaching
  8. I'm somewhere in between, and I find that reading the views of people from both ends of the Warne spectrum help me to understand my own complicated and mutable feelings about him. Possibly that counts as an appalling breach of the rules of engagement.
  9. Doesn't feel any strong feeling for playing in PW's midfield, maybe.
  10. They might actually sell their best CB today
  11. I can't keep track of who's ITK, who has a gut feeling, and who needs more fibre in their diet.
  12. The current state of social media, in a nutshell! Nobody gives a toss about whether it's real or true
  13. That sets out the effective price Clowes paid: £13.24m for the club £19.28m other debts paid (So, £32.5m cash) And taking on a £22m debt on the stadium. So, effectively, a £54.5m price. Do I have that right?
  14. I don't think that is quite right. The business plan is also a way to make sure that clubs don't get an unfair advantage from administration. Imagine a rich new owner takes over a club, buying them out of administration for a low price that pays creditors only 25p in the pound. Not many would think it fair if he then spent £50 million on new players - when he could, if he wanted, have used that £50m to pay creditors more of what they were owed. I think that's a key reason why EFL business plans last longer than a year.
  15. It's their anthem from the 70s, and it's stuck to them. I can see why they like it, it's a good singalong. We should use our anthem from the 70s and play Sailing by Rod Stewart - We Are Derby is still loved by most isn't it? But while I'm on it, they should never have dropped Zombie Nation.
  16. Derby Girl by Aqua: I'm a Derby Girl, in a Derby world ... Come on Derby, let's go party, ooh ooh ooh yeah
  17. That's easy! Suppose there are 3 teams going for 2 places, all with the same chance. Each has a 2 in 3 chance, which is better than 50/50 and so is odds on.
  18. If you all don't give your full support to the Rams on Saturday, Algeria!
  19. 100% agree. Preach, brother! (Although I am almost prepared to forgive it all for Bent's goal against Wolves)
  20. Well, depends where in the world sage is and what else he was doing at the time. That post was posted c9am UK time, so let's hope he hadn't just finished the school run 🙃
  21. Good question. At that stage of proceedings I was not picking up all the details of my surroundings.
  22. I had a terrible case of the Brad Pitts after eating a dog burger outside Loftus Road. The runs came on that evening when I went to a party thrown by a girl who owned a groovy flat in East London. When I rushed to the loo, I found out that one of the groovy things about the flat was that the bathroom didn't have a door, just a bead curtain. And there was a queue of girls outside the bead curtain. So I ran downstairs and outside to find somewhere, anywhere. The car park in front of the block of flats was small and well lit. The only thing in it was a speedboat on a trailer. And so I found my relief squatting in the small patch of darkness behind a speedboat, beside the Whitechapel Road. It was a memorable evening.
